TYRES
To safely operate your motorcycle, the tyres
must be the proper type (off-road) and size,
in good condition with adequate tread, and
correctly inflated.
Using tyres that are excessively worn
or improperly inflated can cause a
crash in which you can be seriously
hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner's
manual regarding tyre inflation and
maintenance.
Air Pressure
Properly inflated tyres provide the best
combination of handling, tread life, and
riding comfort. Generally, underinflated
tyres wear unevenly, adversely affect
handling, and are more likely to fail from
being overheated. Underinflated tyres can
also cause wheel damage in rocky terrain.
Overinflated tyres make your motorcycle
ride more harshly, are more prone to
damage from surface hazards, and wear
unevenly.
Make sure the valve stem caps are secure.
If necessary, install a new cap.
